How do I download a .exe file on my macbook pro?

I am trying to download a .exe file -- I just switched to a macbook pro from a PC.  help!

You can download any file you like to your Mac, but you won't be able to run an .exe natively as they're for the Windows operating system.  You could purchase something like Parallels if you want to run Windows software, or alternatively use Boot Camp.
Hope this helps.

    What country are you in ? Depending upon what country that you are in then you might be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the iTunes store homepage
    If you're not in a country where TV programmes can be redownloaded then connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and use the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from your iPad

  • How do I transfer a music file from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone?

    How do I transfer a music file from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone?

    If you download Adode Reader (free but very limited) or GoodReader (many features) - you can use file sharing.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under Devices. Click on the Apps tab in the iTunes window on the right. Scroll down to the File sharing apps window. Click on the file sharing app that you are using (Adobe Reader or GoodReader in this example). Drag the document from the desktop onto the file sharing window on the right side - or click on the add button in the lower right corner - and navigate to where the file is on the Mac and select it that way.

  • How can I download videos from youtube with may MacBook Pro? I cannot download with real player. So how can I do it?

    How can I download videos from youtube with may MacBook Pro? I cannot download with real player. So how can I do it?

    There are two apps that I know of - and I would also swear that they come from the same developer, although they've different names. Both have free trials and both cost $40 (but both do 'other' video conversion as well).
    One is WonderShare - I bought this one and it works very well for downloading YouTube videos as well as converting just about any file format you can think of.
    The other is iSkysoft Video Converter (just noticed that it's now $36).
    I tried them both and finally decided on WonderShare. Give them both a trial run and decide if you like either one enough to buy it. I don't know of any 'free' software that will allow you to download and convert YouTube videos, but perhaps someone else will come along and know of something...
    Good luck,

  • How do I download Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Pro?  It says that I have to disable my antivirus software but I never installed one. Does it come with the Mac in the first place?

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Pro?  It says that I have to disable my antivirus software but I never installed one. Does it come with the Mac in the first place? If so, how can I disable it or get Adobe Flash Player?

    That message is just a standard one issued, mainly for Windows users, you can disregard it if you didn't install any anti-virus. (OS X has one installed by Apple that doesn't interfere)
    It's just some forms of anti-malware are really paranoid and lock the entire machine down. (like Norton)

    Assuming you still have the CD's and they are still readable:
    Delete everything "jumbled" from your iTunes Library.
    Insert the CD, and do not read them into iTunes, but copy them instead  into a folder with the name you want in your iTunes Library afterwards, insert the next CD and copy it into a second folder (different name), etc.
    Then put the first folder into Yourname/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Automatically Add To iTunes folder.
    Start iTunes and see it appear in the iTunes Library. Close iTunes, do the same with the next folder, etcetera
    That was excessively complicated, and NOT how you import CD's into iTunes.  I have imported nearly 1000 CD's into iTunes and never once, not once, have I fulled around with folders.  That is done in preferences.  That's not how iTunes works.  William needs to post his question to the iTunes for Mac forum, where much easier solutions will be provided. 

  • How can I download Microsoft office excel  for my MacBook Pro Mac OSX version for free. Please help me!

    How can I download Microsoft office excel for my MacBook Pro  for free?

    You can't. Excel is a commercial product sold by Microsoft in an Office "package" and not as a stand-alone product.
    If you need to be able to open and save Excel documents on your Mac, however, you could try the free LibreOffice.

  • How do I download Windows 7 into my new MacBook Pro

    How do I install windows 7 to my new MacBook Pro?

    I won't speak to how to obtain Windows 7, which you'll need to purchase or you must have a Key that you've purchased or own. 
    You have two choices to use Windows 7.  First, are the virtual Windows emulator, using Parallels or Fusion (I think those are the only 2 but there might be others).  I never liked them much (nor do I like Windows, but sometimes you've got to use them).  They are slow and memory hogs, so you need a ton of memory to use them (8GB good, 16GB better).  But you can use Windows and easily move over to OSX because Windows is in an OSX window.  Easy. 
    We're not going to tell you how to install Windows 7 with those emulators, there are forums for them at the company website.  It's not easy, but it's not terribly difficult.
    VMware Fusion: Run Windows on Mac for Desktop Virtualization
    Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac
    Your other choice, which is better and free, is Boot Camp.  Boot Camp runs Windows natively, no emulator.  But, you don't have access to Mac OSX unless you log out of Boot Camp.  Again, this isn't the place to learn about it, go to the Boot Camp forum for more details.

  • How do I download microsoft office 2011 on a macbook pro without the cd?

    I have bought a microsoft office 2011 program. I wonder how I can download this on my comupter without using the cd?

    Get a external cd drive or return the cd to the store and download it instead.
    If you don't exactly need to use Office, there is a great donationware/free alternative that is compatible and totally cross platfrom (Linux, Windows and OS X) so your files are never locked up.

  • How can i download my word documents from my macbook pro to my IPad?

    I have many documents on my macbook pro that are word documents i want to download to my new IPad. How can i do this. I have read there is a way to do it through ITunes, but i have no idea how to do that either?
    Help

    You can copy documents to the iPad, but first you need one or more apps on the iPad that supports the type of document that you want to copy - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
    For word documents the options include Apple's Pages app, and from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
    As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.

  • How do I download Mac App Store to my MacBook Pro. Somehow, it was deleted

    Somehow, Mac App Store has been deleted from my MacBook Pro (Mac OS X version 10.6.8)
    How do I download this back to my MacBook Pro?

    Yes it is. I have a Mac Book Pro and trying to open Mac App Store. It won't open and isn't even listed under my applications. Apparently, I deleted it some time ago by mistake. I'm trying to somehow download the app for it again. I can't seem to find the app to even download it. Can you help? I'm sorry if I caused you trouble, or if my question wasn't clear.
